Will the Bengals keep Tee Higgins?
That’s arguably the team’s biggest storyline heading into what’s sure to be a busy offseason. After all, Higgins, alongside Tyler Boyd and Trenton Irwin, are all set to hit NFL free agency, so the wide receiver room could look very different come this fall.
Thankfully, the Bengals do have the franchise tag in their back pocket, and Higgins is worthy of that high price tag, which is expected to be in the $20 million range.
During the Senior Bowl festivities down in Mobile (AL), Bengals director of player personnel Duke Tobin was asked about Higgins potentially getting hit with the franchise tag but stayed mum on the subject.
